'Dark Net' es una serie documental de la cadena Showtime formada por mini-episodios en torno al nuevo panorama social originado por internet. En la serie se reflejan las extrañezas que afloran entre las sombras de la red, ese nuevo mundo de conectividad e interacción mundial: implantes y adicciones tecnológicas desatadas, relaciones exclusivamente virtuales, tráfico de armas, etcétera, el más aterrador de los episodios dedicado a la despiadada y devastadora pornografía infantil. Asímismo las sectas y cultos destructivos también tienen un cauce fácil para acceder a más público susceptible de manipulación o los ludópatas o compradores compulsivos se pueden arruinar la vida más rápidamente... Daños colaterales de un invento que ya no tiene marcha atrás y sólo hace que crecer. Obviamente al final lo jodido del asunto es que, sus muchos logros positivos aparte, también da rienda suelta a taras de la sociedad, más o menos expuestas como fiel reflejo de las sombras del mundo.
